as we look to the white house, we sure hope that they are getting something done, the fiscal cliff meeting at the white house right now. what were the mechanics of rushing the deal through congress and getting it passed into law? what would that look like in four days? lisa desjardins joins us now. what will it look like? >> well, there is a couple of possibilities, don. one is that they take sort of the remnants of one of the bills that passed the house or the senate and they just change it. they add whatever is in this deal to it. they have a whole bunch of vehicles that are possible for that. one sticking point, because this deal would most likely deal with taxes, there is a rule in the constitution that is has been interpreted by most every side to determine it has to begin in the house, revenue measures begin in the house. they need a bill that starts in the house, okay, they have a lot to do that. then the trick is making sure they have the votes. i think if we see anything come out of tonight's meeting, anything substantial, that's what is going to happen this next day and a half. l

doesn't mean they're going to get anything done as far as the fiscal cliff is concerned and because the deadline is so tight, about the most we could hope for may be is some kind of temporary deal. if they don't come up with a pick, the economy may be in for a big jolt. >> we're going to see economic activity slow down. i think we're going to see, with the certainty of tax rates raising on all of us that people contract their economic activity. >> and look, here is why. when you take a look at the impact of these tax hikes, at low income levels, a few hundred dollars. but for people make more than $500,000 a year, an average tax hike of $120,000 unless there is some kind of a fix. and finally, here is one possible solution, i guess. starbucks is telling all of their employees here in the dc area to write on every single coffee they make, come together. that is not just a tall order, but maybe a venty. i think a venty. >> kelly: that's really a good idea. not a good one, doug. >> clayton: thanks. what was your beverage of choice this morning? is that your coffee cup? >> juliet: all right

but the fiscal cliff will have happened. and one reason is i think it will be much too hard for the house to agree to a bill that uncouples the tax hikes. in other words, maybe raise taxes on one group, but not another group. that removes the leverage that i think republicans really feel they need in order to get the kind of spending cuts and entitlement reform that they feel is really just fundamental to reforming the nation's debt and the economy staring down a healthier path. so for that reason, yeah, i don't think they're going to have anything by the end of the week. jon: we just heard harry reid saying, oh, it's all john boehner's fault in the house of representatives. the president also seems to be pointing at the house. where does the truth lie here? i mean, who is, who needs to budge? >> well, technically the house and senate have each passed bills, but they don't agree on the bills that they've passed. for republicans i know from talking to even the most moderate republicans they are willing to vote for a tax rate
